I didn't love all of this season, but the increased presence of Penelope's sisters and her mother was top tier. They delivered top comedy in every scene
It clearly exists in an alternate history where all those oh so troubling shenanigans in other countries are not going on. Seriously though. If George marrying a black woman changed the status in race relations enough to create a prominent black nobility, then other major changes have to follow. For instance, how does that effect the slave trade?
@@Ceares Pretty sure even before Queen Charlotte's time, relations between races are wayyy different from how it is in our universe. The level of racism in Queen Charlotte's time must've been much better than how it is in our current life rn. That's why by the time Bridgerton takes place, everyone is pretty much blind to each other's races.
@abbeyBominable123 well several million africans had been shipped across the Atlantic to be slaves and the justification given for it was they were inferior. Racism was different but would struggle to argue it was better.
To be fair, talking while dancing was historically accurate, young people were not allowed to be alone, so that was the only time there were able to talk semi privately.
Well, I suppose it's an accurate phrase to describe black people inserting themselves into an historical period they were not really present for, and playing dress-up.
...but noone here cares about russia still colonizing sovereign countries in the 21st century. Better to ''roast'' something that happened centuries ago, right?
The Bear is VERY good, but in a way where it's VERY unlikely to ever got spotlit on Honest Trailers. It's gorgeous, grounded and, essentially, chaste. See also: Why The Wire is ALSO never going to get an Honest Trailer.
@@Volvagia1927 There are a lot of good movies that had their honest trailers. Something doesn't have to be ridiculous like Bridgerton or Rebel Moon to get a trailer.
Note to self: Never watch Honest Trailers while drinking any beverage, you never know when an RRR reference will have you spill your bev all over yourself in a decidedly unladylike manner! 😂
Funny coincidence of the title choice (Poundton Abbey) because the woman who played Prudence Featherington is the daughter of Jim Carter, who played Carson on Downton Abbey
The corset stuff is nonsense though. In the Regency era, they didn't wear corsets tight laced like that. The gowns all fall from the bust and are not tight around the waist, so there would be no point in making the waist smaller. Instead, what they had was like a wonderbra style undergarment that lifts the chest.
@@saranemcova5448 i actually don't have an opinion on that, i haven't even watched all of bridgerton haha, but i thought that was such a funny way of putting it. 😂
I heard on Twitter that a good explanation for all the colorblind stuff and anachronisms is that it is a long-running regency ren faire type deal where they *really* get into character and that makes the show so much more entertaining than if it were played like an alternate universe or whatever where the British had participated in the slave trade despite Queen Charlotte being black.
This is also a Shonda Rhimes production. I think she has a reputation of diverse casting and/or including it in some way ex. Scandal, How to Get Away with Murder, etc.
I don't know much about European history, but they're not even colorblind. They are very specific to white, black, Indian. There are no other races in the show.
@@chriserony I always thought it was a very urban British cast myself? With less actors from southern Asia/n descent than expected. It's not meant to be historically accurate, just give you the feel of a time period. The same goes for the ridiculously anachronistic costumes, we're watching a fantasy where only the core subject matter is treated (semi-)realistically (emotional struggles).
Back in those days, they knew how to fit and tie corsets so that they didn't inconvenience them. Too bad we can't seem to figure it out, at least according to pop "history".
the fact that corsets should not be even a smallest part of this show annoys me to no end, corsets took the role from stays who only got a way too modernised version of them featured in a few scenes.
@@georgeprchal3924 It sounds like anything would have been better! Seems like they just railroaded her into marrying someone who wasn't suited to her and didn't respect her.
Okay, after that intro, I want to see a show which incorporates the following together 1. Bridgerton 2. Zombies 3. Superheroes 4. Dragons And yes GOT sorta had all of them, but they are most memorable for number 4.
*The show topped The Witcher's record of being the most-watched Netflix series ever within a month of its release. Netflix subsequently renewed the show through a whopping four seasons after releasing just one.*
Damn, this is one of the first times the Honest Trailer has discovered every tiny piece of me that wanted to watch said subject material (Bridgerton) and snuffed it out like an exterminator fumigating a house for cockroaches.

I didn't really want to watch it, but thought maybe I would try it because my friends seemed to think it was worth watching. But now I'm all caught up and I don't even have to watch it. So thanks for that!!

I thought it was a bit stiff and forced, almost like a stage play. But then again Charlotte's character is meant to be theatrical
Bridgerton is a universe where Mozart and Pitbull are colleagues 😭

Mozart wrote a song called "Lich mir im Arsch," so it might not be that much of a stretch.

The Featheringtons were the stars of the season, I loved them. But that indicates how poorly the other characters were treated, too.
Gotta love that Colin went on his Grand European Tour, including France, during THE NAPOLEONIC WARS
I'm assuming every country in the Bridgerton universe is in a state of peace and also has heightened opulence like its version England.

Everyone always gets corsets wrong in TV and movies.
I'm fairly certain that they didn't even wear corsets during the Regency era. The outfits were rather scandalous
That's Bridgerton for you. This sort of thing is fairly constant and grating, it's designed to play to modern stereotypes, not historical truths.
All of the costumes are deliberately atrocious from a historical perspective.

Somebody needs to fact check this but I think this is the longest Honest Trailers has spent time on tropes.
Bridgeton is almost entirely romance tropes lmao

It broke by The Oscars 2024 for 10:58 minutes
